Question

(vi) Find the optimum value of f(x) = (5x - 2 )- 4​

Answer 1

The optimal value of the equation cannot be obtained.

• To find the optimal solution of a single valued equation we take derivative of the equation and equate the derivative to zero.
• Now that derivative equation will lead us to the optimal solution as by obtaining the maxima or minima.
• But in this case, the given function is a straight line equation in one variable with the highest degree of the variable as one.
• It does not have a maxima or minima.
• So the optimal solution cannot be found.
